Help with animations!

[SirGrassy]

Hello!

Im new here, and I'd like some help.

I was coding, made a new spritesheet and tried making it play while I press a key.

It doesn't seem to be working, and I don't know why.

If you could help in any way, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi,

I think the problem was that you redefine the animations every frame and phaser doesn't like this.

Here is your example working:

Here is the slightly changed code: http://jppresents.net/static/examples/walk/walk.js

I move the animation creation to playerInit (and added a single frame stand animation).
Ignore the changes in preloadImageAssets, that was to fit my image files.

Edit1:
There is another small problem with your code, If you walk in two direction (up & right) at the same time, your code switches the animation from up to right every frame - this way the animation never advances to the next frame. You should restructure getPlayerInput() in a way that manages to only call one player.animations.play() at the end. You could create a variable in which you set the animation name during the key checks and then at the end call play with that value.

Edit2:
I changed the animation settting like I suggested in Edit1.
